A Quaint, Family-Friendly Retreat

Escape the crowds and rediscover what RV camping should be. While other resorts pack in 500+ sites and charge premium prices for a corporate experience, Sugar Sands RV Resort offers something refreshingly different: a quaint, family-friendly retreat where you’re treated like family, not a reservation number.

Here, you’ll find generous 22′ x 60′ concrete pads, genuine Southern hospitality, and all the amenities you need – without the chaos, crowds, and sky-high prices of mega resorts.

Why Choose Us

Why Choose Sugar Sands Over Crowded Mega Resorts?

You're a Guest, Not a Number

Setting

True Family
Focus

This is one of the nicest and cleanest campground / resorts I've been to (I travel often for work). The staff here is awesome, and the guests are just as great. We had an emergency while here leaving me to tend to my kids and the emergency. The staff came right over to help take care of my kids while I dealt with the emergency. Many of the guests also came right over offering to help with anything they could. The grounds are well kept, All of the sites are concrete and flat, nice landscaping all around. They have a wonderful pool, and fitness center, clean and working laundry room.
Lee Bolinger
Sugar Sands is a beautiful property. Very well maintained. Large sites with privacy landscaping trees between every site, I loved that. If you're looking for a relaxing escape, this is your place. Very quiet and laid back environment. Staff is so friendly. Big shout out to Mandy, she is the sweetest!
